Candy School Update
The Board of Directors and the Education Committee has reviewed the evaluations, comments and attendance reports from the most recent Candy Schools. Although the course has been successful in a number of ways they see the need to offer shorter courses. We are planning shorter 2-3 day courses focused on specific techniques such as ganache and truffles, caramels, etc. Courses will be offered at a manufacturing facility featuring a retail storefront and production kitchen.

Check back soon for courses to be announced for the summer of 2010.
